Over the years I've had the pleasure of recording and playing with some very cool artists. This is attempt to try an find and put everything I've done in one place.

A couple of months ago a friend of mine (Evan Kuiper) asked me to record some some facepiano (harmonica) on a Renegade Country album he was working on.  The project is called The Barrel Maker and he's releasing an EP called "Maybe One Day" in the next few months. I'm blown away!!! This is the title track. 

The Barrel Maker "Maybe One Day" (March 2016)

The project is called The Barrel Maker. This has single written all over it! The EP is coming...called "Maybe One Day". There's been a conversation about a show in the near future as well...I'll keep you posted.

The Barrel Maker "See You Next Tuesday" (April 2016)

The Barrel Maker "Tie One On" (April 2016)

When I worked at Power 97 in Winnipeg I played the occasional show with a band called Sonic Bloom. They had a bit of success on their own and got signed. They had to change their name after getting a record deal from Sonic Bloom to Tin Foil Phoenix. That deal didn't do much for them...it might surprise you but a lot of bands get screwed by record companies. I recorded this song with the band during an evening of heavy drinking. I actually had NO idea they even used me on the record. I found out listening to The Wolf in Regina when I was on my way to Edmonton. TBH I had NO idea the band had even released the song as a single until I heard on that drive. The sad thing about this act is if they has been pushed properly by their label I think they could have had some success.

Tin Foil Phoenix "ManOfConstantSorrow" with Lochlin Cross on Harmonica

I'm not even sure how I met Jake...I think his manager may have asked to me to come down to the studio when he was recording. Jake is a very cool singer song writer. I still see his name from time to time so I know he's still playing...which is a good thing because he's a wildly talented young man.

Jake Buckley "Tavern Down Below" with Lochlin Cross on Harmonica

I was in Prince George when I recorded with these guys. I think they've since relocated to Calgary. This was a LONG time ago...cool track though...VERY Bluesy!

Coming In for a Landing

The Rae King Blues Band "'57 Chevy" with Lochlin Cross on Harmonica

Sadly this is the ONLY audio I have of The Bear Band. It's a live cut from a gig we did opening for Dr. Hook at Century Casino in 2011.

The Teenage Gentlemen (aka The Bear Band) "H.O.P.E. Oilers Song" with Lochlin Cross

I've had The Glorious Sons on my show more than a couple of times, and I used to make sure I got a song out of them when they stopped by. This is an acoustic version of a tune off their first full length release. I LOVE these guys.

The Glorious Sons "Gordie" (acoustic) with Lochlin Cross on Harmonica

Another band I was in that I had trouble tracking down audio for. This was a cover band I was in and traveled with for over 3 years shortly after I moved to Edmonton from Winnipeg in 2006. I had a lot of fun with the band.

Eddie Van Waylons "Cadillac Ranch" (live at the Urban Lounge July 2008)

I recorded this with these guys when they were in the studio working on their major label debut. I have NO idea what happened to this band, but I loved these guys!

The Waking Eyes "I Am The Walrus" with Lochlin Cross on harmonica (Nov 2004)

Joe was in to promote a Hip cover show he was doing in Edmonton and Calgary, and I talked him into letting me join him on a song. We always make sure he brings his guitar with him when he comes to the station!
